Novel de física para todos los públicos
Buenos días!
Seguro que has oído hablar de las ondas pareotontales, o mejor de las ondas gravitacionales, era así no?
Atrévete a entender el fundamento del novel de física como si fueses un niño de 7 años, te atreves??

Aumented reality in physics
Have you ever heard about aumented reality?
Maybe you haven´t listen to the words for you know it for sure! Pokemon Go? Yes! that´s aumented reality! If you had use it, for sure you liked it, if not, I would like to introduce it to you with this activity: Elements 4D.
Step 1. Download and print the worksheet: in this link you can download the pdf.
Step 2. Download the App in your mobile phone or tablet: Elements 4D by DAQRI. For Android or for IOS.
Step 3. Activate the camera of your device and focus on the worksheet, what can you see?
Let´s play!
PS: there are other options (less related to physics) that can be very fun to play, such as: anatomy 4D;

10 Essential Characteristics of a 21st century educator
Any educator nowadays has the opportunity of catching the wave as George Couros explains in his article " 10 essential characteristics of a 21st century educator".
In this entry we are going to comment on the post of George Coruos:
Pointing out some ideas:
It starts with the reflexion: "we are 16 years into the 21st century!”, yet I would argue, we have 84 years to go! ..."
If there is something everybody agrees about 21st century, is that everything is moving at tremendously fast speeds.
Let´s name the pointed characteristics:
Relationship Builder
Do our students feel valued when they come to school? Do we seek to simply engage them in content, or do we seek to empower them to create?
Learner/Adapter
We do not have to change everything, but we need to continuously evaluate our practices and the impact on students to grow and get better.
“If we create a culture where every teacher believes they need to improve, not because they are not good enough but because they can be even better, there is no limit to what we can achieve.” —Dylan Wiliam
Inclusive
Every single individual has different experiences and strengths that they bring to the classroom...
Reflective
Information is coming our way faster than ever.
How could you possibly move forward without looking back?
“We do not learn from experience, we learn from reflecting on experience.” John Dewey
Networked/Collaborative
Networks consist of both “online spaces” and face to face collaboration. ... When you are networked, great ideas often find you, not the other way around.
As David Weinberger states, “The smartest person in the room is the room.” If that is true, how big is your room? How do you access this “room” to be better for your students?
Innovator
How do we look at what our students need and create opportunities for them to learn in deeper and meaningful ways? How do our students become these same innovators? They will need to become this in their world, and hopefully it is because of us, not in spite of us.
Remember…innovation is probably not in your curriculum, but neither are worksheets.
Leader
The notion that “everyone is a leader” is something that has been challenged a great deal over the years, yet what does being a “leader” mean? It is not being a boss.... If only a few people are “allowed” to lead, meaningful change will happen at a much slower pace.
Storyteller
“If history were taught in the form of stories, it would never be forgotten.” ― Rudyard Kipling
... we have to make a connection to the heart before we make a connection to the mind. ...Your story and stories matter, and will resonate long after our time with our students. You might not feel you have anything meaningful to share, but we all have a story to tell.
“The purpose of a storyteller is not to tell you how to think, but to give you questions to think upon.” ― Brandon Sanderson
Designer
“would you want to spend the whole day learning in your own classroom?”
Are your learning experiences designed to meet the needs the of the unique learners in your context? How do you ensure that you are building on the strengths and passions of all learners? How does the space and environment you create factor into the learning experiences? These are all important considerations for how we designing learning experiences today.
Artist
I have been thinking about the idea of “educator as artist” a lot more recently, and love this quote from John Steinbeck;
“I have come to believe that a great teacher is a great artist and that there are as few as there are any other great artists. Teaching might even be the greatest of the arts since the medium is the human mind and spirit.”
Anything new? most of teacher would say, "No"; it´s true this characteristics are timeless but sometimes it is good to remember the good habits, ;).

URL Shortener
A very useful tip,
URL shortener by google, and here another one.
Shorthening your URL links will make your work easier, cut-off with the very long URLs!

Kahoot as an assessment tool
Kahoot could be a very useful tool to assess students in a fast and no-stressful way.
So, what is the problem? why don´t to use it?
Easy... there are not enought computers in the classrooms.
Solution: a TIC classroom with more computers or giving the permision to students of using their own devices at class. Second option seems to be costless and easy but... have we consider how well the wifi of our IES are working? Could the wifi of our high school support that?
Teachers can improve many things but there are "things" out of our hands...
Here an example I had use to assess some students at the 2nd ESO:
Reacciones químicas en la naturaleza

Recommended websites
Here you have some websites you have to look at:
In the website of the MIT they have created a line focus on undergraduate students: In this website you can find all kind of videos and materials related to science.
IES Ramiro de Maetzu has a very nice scientific program: here you can find activities to reinforce and extend your knowledge.
This is a blog where 10 scientific websites are listed.
We will increase this list together along the course. I need your help!

Here is the link to our padlet, we can use it for....
- Sharing information when students work in teams so they don´t neet to meet physically all the time.
- Posting final product of a project.
- Brainstorming
- To give an opinion about a topic: share a video.
Welcome to PQ 2017-2018!
